Folks,

Here are 13 definitions of TITTYNOPE. Twelve are your collective inventions. One isn't. Your job is now to vote for two of them: because you think they might be correct, because you want to reward their composer's creativity, or because something about them floats your boat, Whatever. Vote for two of these by public Reply to this message:

1. Upside-down.

2. A feather duster.

3. A brass coat-button.

4. Two or more adjacent cinder cone volcanoes.

5. A coarse cornmeal primarily used as cattle feed.

6. or bitter gourd juice makes breastfeeding unpleasant for babies.

7. A fritillary butterfly of the genus Melitaea, native to parts of Europe and Asia.

8. A small quantity of something left over such as uneaten food; a residual morsel or a crumb.

9. A rather small sparrow (Zonotrichia atricapilla) of the Pacific coast of South America having a plain brown crown bordered on each side by white.

10. [Cornwall] An improvised slipway for launching fishing boats from a stony beach, consisting of logs placed at intervals parallel to the shoreline. 

11. [Naut. slang] A short, useless length of leftover rope or twine after a knot has been tied; by extension, any trivial remnant produced in the course of practical work.

12. A small ornamental clasp used in 18th‑century waistcoats, typically fashioned from pewter or brass, designed to fasten the inner lining without being visible on the outer garment.

13. [Slang] A type of mango, more commonly know as an ataulfo, typically golden yellow and generally weighing between 6 and 10 ounces (170 and 280 g), with a somewhat sigmoid shape ("S"-shaped) 

The deadline for voting is:

Boston, U.S.             Wed, Dec 3, 2025 at 11:30 am EST
Chicago, U.S.            Wed, Dec 3, 2025 at 10:30 am CST
Los Angeles, U.S.        Wed, Dec 3, 2025 at 8:30 am PST

Paris, France           Wed, Dec 3, 2025 at 5:30 pm CET
London, U.K.  Wed, Dec 3, 2025 at 4:30 pm GMT

I may close voting early if all players who submitted definitions have voted. So, if you didn't submit one but want to vote, please vote early or let me know that you'll vote later.

You can vote if you didn't submit a definition (or even if you've never played before). The only requirement is that you not know what TITTYNOPE means, If you recognize it, and didn't let me know earlier that you know its meaning, please say so now.

I’m sorry, but this is timestamped after the deadline and arrived after the results were out.
